The son of Aranuir , who led the Dúnedain of the North during the closing years of the Watchful Peace . It was Aravir, it seems, who devised the name 'Aragorn'; he gave it to his son, who succeeded him as Chieftain Aragorn I . The Aragorn of the The Lord of the Rings was his distant descendant, Aragorn II of the line of Isildur .
Notes
1
The date of Aravir's birth appears only in The History of Middle-earth volume XII, The Peoples of Middle-earth . It cannot therefore be considered completely reliable.
